Make your own
I have trotlined all my life. We catch big flatheads in the river by our deercamp. My experience with these were straightened out hooks. I dont trust the clamps either. I make my own using heavy barrel swivels and red circle hooks in either 5/0 or 6/0. You could replace the hooks that come with this trotline with the circle hooks, but I would rather custom make mine. For me, the circle hooks are a must. On each line I will put 2 or 3 handsized bream with the rest around the 3 finger size. The circle hooks keep the baitfish on and wont let a big cat off. When I was a kid my dad and uncle went the easy route with these pre-made trotlines and we only caught small yellows. Now that I put a little extra effort in, Im catching 15-20 lb yellows and big blues too.

Great Product
I bought this product and tried it this weekend. It worked out great. Only lost one of the metal hooks and that could have been my fault for not making sure it was secure when I ran the line. Simple to put out, run and take up. Fast! Love it. Will be purchasing more soon.

deluxe trotline
The item will catch fish. However, hooks are of poor quality with coating flaking off causing rust. Individual hook ties provided in package have many of there ends unraveling. Would recommend with reservation.........hooks will equire replacement in short period of time.

fish catcher
bought 2 lines and they work great. 1 line was frayed a little but it caught 6 catfish (1 flathead 8 to 9 pounds),2 turtles,1gahr and did not break line, so they are good lines.Line was used on the Gasconade river in Missouri.

Trot lines are made to be stretched over a wide area (usually from a tree or downed log to another anchoring point). The line is usally baited with cut shad, bluegill, worms, or even liver depending on the species of catfish that are targeted and what works best in your area.

As well the line will need to be anchored by a large enough weight to keep the line on bottom. As well, you may want to tie a jug to the line to help mark where the line is (and to keep boaters from chopping the line up in their props).

As for catching the catfish, when a catfish does take the bait, they tend to hook themselves due to their actions. Just be sure to check the line often to ensure that the hooks are baited and that no turtles are eating the bait or fish that are caught.
